No GPU.js version included

Removed

• gpu.js is not included as a child dependency although it is a dev dependency and will be available in CLI.

Better CLI Inputs, Mem Leak Fix and Much More!

Added

• CLI options prompt: Benchmark v3 CLI prompts the user to enter the options as an alternative to passing the options as a JSON argument.
• Mean Error: Percentage Deviation of the results(run time, build time) from the average value is returned along with the min, max and avg here

Changed

• The CLI output has been reformatted.
• Standardized Options: Most of the options have been renamed such that only lowercase letters are used and words are separated by _. e.g.: fullOptions -> full_options. New Options
• Renamed the option num_benchmarks to num_iterations to avoid confusion with multiple benchmarks
• Best and Worst performer stats are no longer calculated for build_time.
• Scoring: A new, non-linear scoring system has been implemented. Read More

Fixed

• Memory leak caused due to functions being built multiple times.
• Other small bugs and typos.

Optimization, Pipeline Bug fix and more

Fixed

• Pipeline benchmark used CPU arrays instead of GPU textures as initial input. (but the output of the functions was pipelined and working)
• A fatal security issue in lodash sub-dependency by bumping version

Changed

• Important: Dist files are temporarily not included due to issues with browserify. This issue will be addressed as soon as possible. (#7)
• GPU.js version to v2.3.0
• The benchmark kernels are destroyed after usage to release memory.
• The pipeline benchmark textures are deleted after usage to release VRAM.

Updated GPU.js version

Changed

• GPU.js version to v2.1.0

Fixed README

Fixed

• JSON syntax error in the README.

Multiple Benchmarks!

Added

• Multiple Benchmarks feature (see: https://github.com/gpujs/benchmark#multiple-benchmarks)
• Plotly and Chartist style JSON generator for plotting graphs (see: https://github.com/gpujs/benchmark#multiple-benchmarks)

Changed

• Code optimized
• Changed gpu.js version to v2.0.3

Fixed

• Minor bugs in the CLI
• Other minor typos and bugs

README Fix

Fixed

• Critical README typo fixed

No Default GPU.js version

Changed

• GPU.js version can be chosen while installing (but the included dist files will have the built version only).

Force GPU mode

Changed

• GPU mode is forced. (Will throw an error if GPU is not available)

New Pipeline Benchmark, Bugs Fixed

Changed

• Completely changed the old pipeline benchmark and added a new one.
• bumped GPU.js version to 2.0.0-rc.21

Added

• New pipelining benchmark

Fixed

• Negative CPU score when CPU is not benchmarked
• Percentage difference -ve or 0
